It's faster now, great.
The politics are actually mostly pretty good in this.
If you are unfamiliar with the AV1 codec well it is the successor to VP9 which was in the same class of h.264 which was and still is prolific on the internet. AV1 is a big jump over h264...
MediaTek was early to implemented AV1 in their Dimensity smartphone chips since 2019. And if you aren't aware those are in a lot of Chinese smartphones.
There is now a decent chance you own and use a device that supports AV1 decoding. This means that AV1 I think is going to take over the internet in the next few years.
Although AV1 is free and open source, it is a result of corporate socialism and Google's CIA influence. It probably wouldn't even be possible in the capitalist framework otherwise because big surprise intellectual property isn't actually good for innovation or much else.

It’s only illegal of you commit a crime while bypassing the firewall, like if you were posting on a Western porn site or something, in which case it could be used to increase sentencing in court.
Do people actually get sentenced in China for amateur porn? (not the stated context specifically I assume)
My first computer as I remember. Great engineering, much innovation especially on the custom LCD which I'm surprised isn't in all the cheaper smart phones. Microsoft tried to ruin the software lol.
> Don Hopkins announced that he is creating a free and open source port of the game SimCity to the OLPC
that's what I remember the most
wow. I've been designing toys with these things and it's always scared me.

I actually expect it to be a pretty grossly thing. But I'm ready to put on the heat. Any other Californians ready to reject your Amerikkkan allegiances and to organize and do other stately things on that basis? > > I'm going to develop this idea more and prepare more material on it.
I ran Gentoo on our Ryzen 5800X computer... But we had to stop with that because after all my tinkering we didn't have a usable enough system capable of doing the things we needed, like running Steam.
I have developed a love/hate relationship with portage. It's very powerful letting you get at all the compiler flags. I like that. But it was too unwieldy also and parts of it felt a little outdated.
What I need for my workstation is something that is very powerful and efficient but also highly robust and stable enough to serve as the base for all my usages.
Maybe I'll try Funtoo. Thought about NixOS or something but don't want to do that really.
Looks like the creator of Gentoo has a YouTube: Daniel Robbins / BDFLFUN2
Hope the military doesn't get a hold of this god alien level tech.
So we've been waiting for this... Yesterday I watched Tech Yes City's vid in Akihabara where he says that the shop folks tell him the miner dumps are here.
Now I'm seeing K80's and K40's on Ebay for $80. This would make a workstation beast. It's a dual die card from 28nm era with 2x 12GB GDDR5 and 2x 4 TFLOPs. K80 on Ebay
Clearly coming from scalers but maybe they are scared.
If you go ahead and get a server GPU like that like I likely will then go ahead and forward the frames over PCIe. https://linustechtips.com/topic/1340083-guide-using-an-nvidia-tesla-k80-for-gaming-on-windows/
Edit: oops I didn't give the seemingly good K80 link

ROMs would be useful for storing lots of data for long periods of time without corruption or freeing up space on your SSD for more hot data, that could be automated. They should be cheap and compact. These are useful properties.
Linux kernel is like 28mil lines of mostly driver and arch code. It's open enough that you can basically use the code as it is to do what you please... There are limitations of course but the code is out there.
As it is the foundation and kernel ecosystem is seemingly pretty corporate friendly as it prob needs to be.
Are you worried that Linux might be attempted to be recooperated by capitalists somehow? It is a very valuable asset. I'm not sure how they could do it. Maybe they will try and make it more like corporate OSs... Or they will use their legal and sanctioning powers to prevent some people from using it how they would like.
This is so bad it's good. Funny it's in open air.
I like kpop tho. North Koreans are based. Love that they try to be respectful and then clap intently at the end.
Was supposed to be a joke but took them six genuine replies until someone called me out.
